NASA's Hypersonic Technology project aims to develop reusable hypersonic vehicles for space access by 2050, collaborating with industry, academia, and other agencies.
NASA's Hypersonic Technology project aims to develop reusable hypersonic vehicles by the 2030s, which could potentially serve as the first stage in a two-stage space access vehicle by 2050. The project is divided into four main research areas: system-level design, analysis, and validation; propulsion technologies; vehicle technologies; and high-temperature durable materials. It collaborates with industry, academia, and other government agencies, utilizing their expertise, facilities, and computational tools to advance the state of the art in hypersonic flight.
